    Photography - Keeping it adventurous and fun - exploring the city

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    EN: I am a creative individual that loves Tutoring I always ensure that each individual will leave the session having learned new skills they can independently develop after the session. I like to integrate Photography to make a more memorable and practical experience. I also use collage and mixed media to experiment with photography and different textures. I can also teach photoshop and how to really make your shots unique.

    During sessions, we will walk in Barcelona and discover sights to photograph, all you need is your phone or if you wish to bring a camera that is fine. The lenses I provide help adapt your device to macro and other fun effects! There are also important lessons in structuring a shot, lighting, themes, and technical areas. I am native English speaking with a Degree in Photography and have worked creatively for the last 10 years across many community projects so I have a lot of experience and insight to share! lars

    About Me

    I started with photography about 8 years old because my aunty in Canada had a dark room she built in the basement and I was hooked from then. We took a lot of photos during that trip and I always carried a disposable camera from then on really and then eventually a digital compact camera before studying at Uni. I used to edit images, print and re-draw on them, bleach into them, colour/ edit. I started at about 10 years old using miscrosoft paint and eventually photoshop to layer images and makes collages, I was always drawn to the many mediums photography opens and the instantaneous moment someone gets a shot, whether it be their first or one of many there is something exciting about that and the potential it holds on its own or to transform with different materials. I work freelance as a Photographer for weddings and alternative events. I also Tutor Art to all ages and provide photography tours around the city. My personal artwork is a mix of photography, illustration and collage. Focusing on community projects is part of my practise and I deliver a programme using visual arts, sound, mixed media and spoken word. If you are looking for a unique photographer or Tutor please get in touch!

    Education

    I have a degree in Photography from Brighton University, I have been working for a variety of charities and magazines shooting large scale projects and Tutoring for the last 10 years in London, Berlin and Barcelona.

    Experience / Qualifications

    I love people watching and city shots, candid photography and images of reflection/surprise/ irony/ contrast and most of all architecture and asymmetrical angles. I have always shared my passion in photography with the community, young people and most of all with unlikely characters. I worked in many prisons and with individuals on life licence, people coming through substance misuse and also mental health conditions. I think there is an essence in photography that can in-light confidence in anyone and it is exactly by working with such a cross range of people that I can now adapt and facilitate workshops and tours to any. I really like the energy young teens bring and for curious people and advanced photographers I think I can still add a different perspective to the capturing of images.
    Lessons in developing editing skills in photoshop or personal goals within the software. I can show how photoshop can be used for creative and artistic effects, portrait airbrushing or for collage of images and corrective levels after a shoot/ event.

Break forever the insurmountable wall that prevents you from writing today. It is a matter of combining improvements in form with improvements in substance. For this, the sessions can for example take place according to your needs as follows: a) Comments / proposals on the text that you will offer me b) Writing exercises based on a statement. c) A series of precise and pragmatic recommendations and their application through style exercises. Whether it is a novel, an essay, song lyrics, various texts, a biography or simply a report for professional or school purposes, it is about offering you elements personalized pedagogy: - Study your text - Build text, song lyrics etc - Calmly polish the style - Research and develop your lexical fields - Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others All this by combining theory and practice: Writing work from exercises then as part of a personal project. During the sessions, you are guided in your writing project. The trainer accompanies you and teaches you the preparation method, gives you writing tools and helps you work on your style and your imagination. The objective is multiple, including a reflection on one's own literary path, an introduction to the basic tools of style work and exercises on description.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. À la carte: evaluated and adapted to each personality.

    Creative Writing - Unleashing the Inner Storyteller
    My childhood is inextricably linked to the power of stories. The books I devoured, their plots, and characters deeply shaped who I am. This passion followed me to the University of British Columbia, where I majored in Sociology and Creative Writing. While a subsequent career in marketing (both in Canada and Karachi) provided valuable experience, I always felt a yearning for deeper fulfillment. My foray into film production ignited this passion, confirming my true calling as a storyteller and creative. However, it was when I began working with children that I truly found my joy. Guiding young minds, fostering their unique voices, and equipping them with the tools for confident expression – this is my true prerogative.My teaching philosophy centers on cultivating the intangible: a love for creation, expression, and the pursuit of knowledge. I specialize in Personalized Learning Plans, Engaging Activities, Strong Foundational Skills, Confidence Building, Personalized Attention: I am passionate about helping children discover the magic of language and unleash their inner creativity.

    Poetry & Creative Writing Classes with Louisa
    Would you love to write, but don't know where to begin? Perhaps you're already writing or studying English/creative writing, and need a hand? Would you benefit from 1-1, tailored support? I'm a writer and poet, and my experience of tutoring hundreds of people over the past couple of decades has taught me that anyone can write with the right tools, support and encouragement! We all have experiences we can draw on to express ourselves creatively through the written word. Children, young people, and those experiencing challenges often find writing particularly beneficial and enjoyable. I am here to help inspire new and emerging writers by guiding you through the basics of writing, facilitating a deepened enjoyment and understanding of the power of words, and, importantly, supporting you to have confidence in your unique voice. These interactive, informal, and supportive online classes are aimed at students of any age (above 7 years) who wish to write poetry, short stories, or creative prose (such as life writing). This includes beginners who are keen to learn basic writing skills, and those with some experience wishing to develop their practice and learn more, including students of English and creative writing at school, college or outside of formal education. Although we will touch on key grammatical terms, the focus will be on your creative expression through the written word. In these classes, which will be tailored according to age, experience, needs, and areas of interest, students will learn the basics of writing short stories, including flash fiction; poetry, including free verse and traditional forms such as Haiku and sonnets; and creative prose, including life writing or short creative essays. You can attend as many classes as you like, and together, we will build your skills and understanding of creative writing, including identifying the stories you want to tell. The classes will be a mix of presentation, 'warm-up' writing activities, discussion, reading and analysing key texts, main writing activities, and redrafting, editing and proof-reading your work. For those wishing to get published, there will be additional optional support available, such as detailed editing and mentoring advice, as well as hints and tips on developing as a writer. Bring what you need to me, and we will shape the classes together! I hold a recent DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check, and parents or guardians of students under 18 years of age are welcome to meet the tutor first, and/or sit in on the classes. I look forward to hearing from you!
